OK, I know I'm old, but really, did she have to lead with that?


It certainly emphasizes just how much YC is built upon the backs of the starry-eyed tech youth...


Nice... :)

Would be interesting to hear how your age affected (or didn't affect) your YC experience sometime.


I could be wrong, but the vibe that I'm getting on the ground is that there's a lot more funding deals being done.

I have a hunch that investor's portfolios have recovered from the roller coaster stock market of the past 2 years, and they are in the mood to start taking risks and writing checks again.

It's a good time to be an entrepreneur.
